Terry's book is probably quite good, but the blurb on Amazon leaves something to be desired. I need more than a one sentence description. How about naming some of the recipes?

It's not coming out until 2014. They probably haven't even finished developing/testing recipes yet. Usually that stuff is updated a few months before the release.

It was updated recently. The title is no longer Vegan Salad Ninja, but instead it's Salad Samurai.

And some of the recipes are named in the new book description!

Amazon book description wrote:

As coauthor of the bestselling vegan desserts series (including Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World) and plant-based bible Veganomicon, and author of the go- to international cookbooks Viva Vegan! and Vegan Eats World, Terry Hope Romero knows her veggies. Now she’s turning to the new American staple: entreé salads.

The discussion was already out of place in an upcoming cookbook thread, let's not drag it back up, please.

Also, this looked like something I was interested in, tried to look up the author as "Adam Media" (pronouncing it Meh-dia), then realized it was ADAMS MEDIA. So does this book not even have an author? That makes me think the quality of recipes could be questionable, but here it is anyway: The Spicy Vegan

Someone might've already posted this, but there's also a new 30 Minute Vegan with a soup theme: The 30-Minute Vegan: Soup's On!. I like the one Mark Reinfeld book I have, but I don't know how much use I'd get out of a soup-only book. I'm interested though.

I will totally be purchasing that! I love those 30 minute books. I've surprised myself by liking them, but it's a brand that really works and somehow the recipes manage to be really unique (and very well tested, I presume, since I've never had a flop) while still being really quick and easy to make. They're the books I turn to most when trying to work through our CSA boxes, and soup is definitely what I make most frequently when I have heaps of veggies to plough through and only a couple of nights a week to actually cook.

Any updates on Julie Hasson's casserole book? I know there were testers for it, but haven't heard anything since. If there's one thing a Minnesotan loves its a casserole. Except all Minnesotans know they're called hot dishes.

Vegan Casseroles: Pasta Bakes, Gratins, Pot Pies, and More by Julie Hasson is now listed on Amazon with a publication date of Oct 7, 2014.

I am wondering if I want to pre-order (or rather flat out buy - it comes out so quickly) Straight from the Earth. this is the one drawback of losing my job - I wont be able to see cookbooks that come out right away now. I do want more "vegetable" based books... this seems like it.
